Let'sGoZips94 Posted February 28, 2018 Report Posted February 28, 2018 GREAT ejection by Groce. That was for his team. They've fought HARD, and he will fight for them. 2 Quote

Agreed, love it. Shows the players his support when the game was over leading up to the rivalry game! 1 Quote
clarkwgriswold Posted February 28, 2018 Author Report Posted February 28, 2018 (edited) Good Lord, almost made it to the other sideline. Can't wait for the post-game with Frenchy! He sure as hell got his money's worth! Edited February 28, 2018 by clarkwgriswold 1 1 Quote

I do think it was more about getting fired up for his team, though. Going to the other sideline is a bit excessive, yet awesome. He was a human chair that Bob Knight tossed. Haha. Quote

Hilltopper Posted February 28, 2018 Report Posted February 28, 2018 Buddy Mayborg is the worst ref in the MAC. Quote
ZachTheZip Posted February 28, 2018 Report Posted February 28, 2018 (edited) It's not like getting tossed from games for being hotheaded is a new experience for Groce. Edited February 28, 2018 by ZachTheZip 1 Quote
Illini Zip Posted February 28, 2018 Report Posted February 28, 2018 Groce waited until the end as to not effect his teams chances, but he forced that ref to T him up. My opinion is he made damn sure the league witnessed it. I am thinking he might be sending a message higher up, not just to that ref directly. Groce can get worked up, but I have never witnessed that approach ever. 1 Quote
clarkwgriswold Posted February 28, 2018 Author Report Posted February 28, 2018 Groce with French now. Quote
clarkwgriswold Posted February 28, 2018 Author Report Posted February 28, 2018 (edited) He said he had enough and that it was ridiculous. One possession game then bad call on Duvivier. Loved the kids' effort. Calls didn't go their way. Kids deserve better. Edited February 28, 2018 by clarkwgriswold Quote

Being a hothead? Yes. Doing what he did and getting tossed? I don't know if I have ever seen anything like that. Quote

So, now we have to WIN on Friday to try to avoid being the #11 or #12 seed. I would like to play Kent no matter what. Kent has a history of playing poorly in the first round and it is close enough where we would get some Zip fans to the game. Not sure what has to happen for that to happen. Since we play on Friday I guess we will not know till Saturday. Edited February 28, 2018 by 1981 grad Quote
ewbrooman1 Posted February 28, 2018 Report Posted February 28, 2018 I liked it. Controlled rage. Quote

1981 grad Posted February 28, 2018 Report Posted February 28, 2018 Did anybody else notice Ivey holding the coach back and getting him away from the officials. I always thought that Ivey had the quickest temper on the team. Now we know it is the coach!! Great move by Ivey to get the coach away from the officials. Quote

You clearly didn't pay attention to Groce while he was at OU. The man broke a clipboard at the JAR, I believe because the Rowdies were bugging him. As long as it's somewhat controlled and aimed at the right person or people, I don't mind. I actually like it every once in a while, especially during a season like this. Quote

I wonder how you and I both would think about wanting to play at Kent next Monday if losing to Kent at home this Friday is what would be needed to make that happen? Quote
